What is what to do when sunscreen gets in your eyes?

When sunscreen gets in your eyes, it can cause stinging, burning, and temporary blurred vision. Here's what to do:

• Immediately rinse your eyes: Use plenty of cool, clean water. The goal is to flush out the sunscreen as quickly and thoroughly as possible. Use a sink, shower, or even a clean water bottle. Tilt your head to the side and gently pour water into the affected eye, allowing it to flow across the eye from the inner corner to the outer corner. Do this for at least 15-20 minutes.

• Remove contact lenses: If you wear contact lenses, remove them as soon as possible before rinsing. Sunscreen can get trapped under the lenses and cause further irritation. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Remove%20Contact%20Lenses
• Avoid rubbing: Rubbing your eyes will only make the irritation worse. It can also scratch your cornea. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Avoid%20Rubbing
• Use artificial tears: After rinsing, you can use artificial tears to soothe your eyes and help restore moisture. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Use%20Artificial%20Tears
• Monitor your symptoms: If the stinging, burning, or blurred vision persists for more than an hour or two after rinsing, or if you experience any pain, redness, or light sensitivity, see a doctor. See: https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Monitor%20Your%20Symptoms
• Prevention: To prevent sunscreen from getting in your eyes, use sunscreen sticks around your eyes.
